Hans von Poschinger (1892 - 1951) owned the Theresienthal factory together with his brother Egon. Though being a successful manager of the factory, he did not study business, but art at the Academy of Visual Arts in Munich (Akademie der Bildenden Künste). This reflects the approach of the family: the creative, artistic part of the job was regarded as much more important for the success of the manufactory than the business part. The Poschinger family knew that knowledge about the business will easier come with the practical experience than the artifice.

Hans had a very strong influence on the collection in the time after the 1st world war until his death in the early 1950s. With his designs he reflected the typical preferences of this era. Thus it was the time of Bauhaus form had to follow function. He fully understood this approach and applied it in his work: you may clearly see this e.g. in the MARLENE series. Out of the huge number of his designs we still produce the series ODESSA, DAGMAR and MARLENE. CONCORD and SERAIL might also be part of his creative work.
